Monday 24 April

Another successful meeting was held with 2 new members and 1 existing member signing up.  

Claire received a special request for a satchel that could be hung on a student's wheelchair.  She produced this lovely satchel that has 3 openings - one for tissues, one for wet wipes, one for gloves, rubbish bag etc and a side pocket for hand sanitiser.
